What Is Going On?

Valentines Day

I got this message from a group on facebook "so you think you can cook?"

Valentine’s Day is fast approaching and I’m sure a lot of folks are beating themselves up wondering what to get that special someone in your life. Bump the Victoria Secret crap…..it’s done! The boring old perfume and the gifts in the little blue box! How about something fresh and original that actually takes a bit of effort on your part and is priceless not just MasterCard! How about you cook them some dinner!!! It’s the sweetest thing ever! Set the table, chill some Champaign, dim the lights and cook something special!

So this Valentine get your grub on with the help of some of the most fabulous chefs from all over, take a look at the different recipes and pick one that’s right for you! Besides, a great meal is the perfect aphrodisiac for a special night such as Valentine!
If there is no current special one at the moment, that’s cool too…cook yourself some comfort food! LOL
Have fun and be blessed!!!

That sounds like fun, how about this for a valentine's meal ? LOL see how the guy put everything down, ready to attack. I can imagine his sleeves rolled up!

Alternatively, if you are in Lagos and are the going out/nocturnal type, there are valentines day parties for couples and singles at Piccolomondo and Bacchus.
